Abstract: A mattress cover includes a first, face layer, a second, back layer, and third, inlay layer between the face layer and the back layer. The inlay layer is composed of a flame-retardant material. The face layer is attached to the back layer. The inlay layer is not attached to the face layer and the back layer.

Abstract: A fabric made by the method of providing a non-woven batt having flame retardant fibers, stitch bonding the non-woven batt with an elastic yarn, and heat setting the stitch bonded, non-woven batt. The stitch bonded non-woven batt is exposed to a temperature in a range of 160° C. to 200° C. for a period in a range of 30 seconds to 120 seconds. In an embodiment, the fabric is adapted for use as a mattress core cover.

Abstract: A fabric made by the method of providing a non-woven batt having flame retardant fibers, stitch bonding the non-woven batt with an elastic yarn, and heat treatment the stitch bonded, non-woven batt. The stitch bonded non-woven batt is exposed to a temperature in a range of 65° C. to 200° C. for a period in a range of 30 seconds to 120 seconds, and contracts in the machine direction in a range of 5% to 65% and in the cross-direction in a range of 20% to 70%. In an embodiment, the fabric is adapted for use as a mattress core cover.

Abstract: A fire barrier fabric includes a first layer including a fleece, flame-retardant cellulosic fibers and a binder; and a second layer including flame-retardant cellulosic fibers and a binder. The fleece may include natural crimped wool. The fleece may include one or more of sheep wool fleece, alpaca wool fleece, cashmere wool fleece, and silk fleece. The flame-retardant cellulosic fibers may be inherently flame-retardant cellulosic fibers. The flame-retardant cellulosic fibers may include one or more of treated flame-retardant cotton fibers, flame-retardant bamboo fibers, flame-retardant viscose fibers, flame-retardant rayon fibers, and flame-retardant silica-filled viscose fibers.

Abstract: A fabric made by the method of providing a non-woven batt having flame retardant fibers, stitch bonding the non-woven batt with an elastic yarn, and heat setting the stitch bonded, non-woven batt. The stich bonded non-woven batt is exposed to a temperature in a range of 65° C. to 200° C. for a period in a range of 30 seconds to 120 seconds.

Abstract: A flame-retardant fabric comprises a textile substrate having a layer of a nanoclay material extending along a surface of the textile substrate and integrated with the textile substrate.
